A commercially-available direct immunofluorescence (IF) reagent (Imagen; Boots-Celltech, Slough, Berkshire, United Kingdom) was similar in sensitivity and specificity to the conventional indirect IF test for the detection of respiratory syncytial virus in respiratory secretions. Both IF tests were more sensitive than culture, particularly for specimens transported from outside the institution.
一种市售的直接免疫荧光(IF)试剂(Imagen;英国伯克郡斯劳市博姿-细胞技术公司)在检测呼吸道分泌物中呼吸道合胞病毒时,其敏感性和特异性与传统的间接免疫荧光试验相似。两种免疫荧光试验都比培养法更敏感,尤其是对于从机构外部运送来的标本。
